At this point I think Clowney has to be the heavy favorite for #1 overall. He's amazing.

Wouldn't shock me if 3 pass rushers went 1-2-3 next year. But yes, it is Clowney's to lose at this point.

Who would the other 2 be? And how highly would you grade Clowney compared to past 1st round DE prospects (Mario, Peppers, Chris Long, etc.)?

Clowney, is better as a prospect then either of those listed.
Clownet-Lynch-and one of the remaining 2013 guys could be the third, I would even take them in this order: Clowney-Werner-Lynch. But this obviously changes as team needs go._________________

I think DeAndre Hopkins comes out this year. He's having a sensational season. No reason to go back to school.

Tend to think the same way, but at this time, have him listed in my 2014 notes.

Fair enough, but then I don't see why you didn't include guys like Justin Hunter, Keenan Allen, and Cordarelle Patterson at this point. Are they more likely to declare than Hopkins?_________________IN THE BAY AREA WE SMOKE PHILLIES

1) I doubt he leaves early
2) He needs to add more size/strength, right now he would be undersized/tweener and they dont typically go round 1.
3) He isn't a sure fire 1st round guy like Clowney, Lee, etc._________________

Plenty of time to bulk up, and we couldn't blame him if he left early if he was going high._________________

Probably has more upside as a CB, but obviously hasn't gotten a lot of experience over there yet. The lack of experience might be a reason for him to come back for his senior year, but the talent is undeniable. Should be interesting to watch next season as he's likely to be the closest thing we've seen to a 2 way player since Champ Bailey.

Pretty crazy he was a really good WR last year and now a talented CB. He should stick at CB IMO, but he can contirbute on both sides._________________
